Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the aspects and characteristics of augmented reality technology applied to the dance field. The 4th industrial revolution is advancing due to the global pandemic, and among them, augmented reality is getting more and more attention in terms of minimization of the gap with reality, accessibility, interactivity, and audience’s active appreciation than virtual reality. These characteristics have an advantage in applying AR to the dance field, which is also revealed in the cases of Philobolus Dance Theater, Gill Jobin’s Company, Yang Seong-Ok & Lia Kim. In conclusion, the application of augmented reality technology in the dance field expands the placeness of dance, allows the audience to actively appreciate dance by touching the smartphone screen to adjust the location and size of the virtual dancers, and changes the form of dance to suit the mobility. In response to these changing aspects, there will be more room for searching for the application of augmented reality technology in the field of dance.
